Editor’s note: First in a two-part series looking at David Vinson’s first 10 years as Wylie ISD superintendent

David Vinson said he has loved every job he’s had, in­cluding his position now as su­perintendent of Wylie ISD.

He became the school chief 10 years ago, in July 2011, suc­ceeding H. John Fuller, who had served from 1993. The district has had just three superinten­dents in the last half-century. Before Fuller, Don Whitt served from 1972 to 1993.
